The Sammamish Police Department and other neighboring jurisdictions are actively investigating a series of residential burglaries and attempted residential burglaries that occurred recently. The suspects target residences in the evening hours, generally between 5:00 pm and 9:00 pm. They frequently enter through a backyard and have also gained access through both the main level and second-level patio doors and windows. Additionally, the suspects have frequently used trail systems and green belts behind homes and neighborhoods.
Detectives believe there are multiple male suspects. They typically wear dark clothing and masks to disguise or hide their identity. They have also used several different non-descript vehicles, varying in make, description, and color. Thieves have specifically targeted master bedrooms, closets, and safes. They have stolen jewelry, high end purses, and cash.
Sammamish detectives and crime analysts are collaborating with several other law enforcement agencies and believe this same group is responsible for many other burglaries in the east King County region. Detectives are actively pursuing every viable lead and need your help. If you see any suspicious activity, please call and report it to 911 immediately. . If your home security camera systems capture anything out of the ordinary, please report it to the Sammamish Police Department by calling (206) 296-3311 or through the online reporting system: https://kingcounty.gov/depts/sheriff/on-line-reporting/on-line-reporting.aspx
